261: SHE WAS SUMMONED TO THE MAIN HALL

SHE WAS SUMMONED TO THE MAIN HALL

Iris stared at Cane, she had never seen him wore something very formal, but he did now and in a dark purple color, which surprisingly, suit him greatly. 0

She had seen the king and the crown prince wore this color before, but none of them could match with the aura that emanated from the alpha right now. He looked regal without even trying. People who didn't know would be mistaken him as the king instead.

The alpha walked across the room and the way he walked was so graceful, as if the whole room lit up by his presence and every servant felt the need to bow to him, an urge that could be enforced only by a true sovereign.

"Miss, you are ogling at him," Hanna mouthed when finally Iris shifted her attention toward her after a lot of nudges, she giggled to see her missy's expression.

Realizing that, Iris immediately closed her mouth and lowered her head, embarrassed.

Hanna immediately stepped aside when Cane approached Iris and took her hand. She lifted her head again and mumbled, "you look so fine." Her face was so red, she felt like kicking herself for being so silly.

Thankfully, Cane's paralyzed expression didn't show any discomfort.

"You look beautiful," Cane replied politely. He turned around to face Felicity, who was gushing over the two of them and was elated to see how well her creation on the two of them. There was nothing that could make her happy than this. "Is it enough?"

"Perfect!" Felicity clapped her hand. "I can't wait for the real ceremony!" Her comment was a little bit insensitive because they knew what had happened, but she still wished for the ceremony to be held, yet no one would dare enough to voice it out, more so, they agreed the two of them looked perfect together.

After that, Cane didn't stay for long, once Felicity said there was nothing wrong, he immediately changed his clothes and left. It almost felt like he only stopped by to change clothes instead.

But the fact that he made time for Iris and kept his words made her felt so happy.

Cane was still taciturn and didn't explain anything, their communication had not yet improved, neither he let her knew where he was going or what he would do, but Iris could feel his effort.

Afterward, Hanna brought lunch into Iris's bedroom, as both of them enjoyed their meal someone knocked on the door and this made her frowned.

"What happened?" Iris asked because Hanna stopped talking in the mid of their conversation, she had been telling her about the gossips around this palace, especially about princess Osana.

If it was not for Hanna, Iris would have been very clueless about what was going on around her and so blind about the power struggle and a few relationships between the member of the royal family, since Cane wouldn't have explained such thing to her.

But, Hanna helped her well informed about her surroundings, after all, a certain servants knew better than any spies and Hanna was good in making a new friend.

"There is a messenger from the crown prince," Hanna said after she listened the guard out there introduced himself and asked for them to step out to hear the message.

Iris and Hanna looked at each other, but the only way to figure it out was to open the door and find out by themselves what the crown prince wanted from her. Alan had left her alone all this time and didn't intentionally find trouble with Cane, though Ethan was still locked inside the fourth prince, Vemion, palace and he couldn't do anything about it.

It was strange, but Iris assumed, Cane must have something to do about it.

"Luna Iris, you are summoned to the main hall and you are expected to leave now," the guard said and that was it, there was no further explanation. Four guards behind him would escort her.

"Why?" Hanna asked, she clutched to Iris, as if she was trying to protect her, but a royal guard wouldn't answer a question from a servant like her, if they were not even willing to divulge the reason when Iris asked them.

"Is my mate there?" At the very least, she could ask about this.

"Yes, the alpha from the Howling Wolf pack is there," the guard replied, which made Iris sighed in relief.

As long as Cane was there, she was sure she would be fine. After all, the crown prince couldn't find any fault with her.

"I will be back soon," Iris said to Hanna and after some coaxing, she finally let her go and put a warm cloak on her before she left with the guards.

Iris had been in the main hall the first time she was here to meet with the king and his loyal subjects, thus to be summoned to that place again, she assumed something significant had happened, but she didn't have any idea what was that.

While they were walking, Iris tried to recall all the information Hanna had given to her, but there was nothing that related to this.

She also looked around, thinking that it was a trap, but they indeed walked toward the main hall and once the door was opened, the first thing she saw was Ethan.

The gamma was standing in the middle of the main hall, he was standing straight in front of the king and Cane stood by his side. Both of them looked surprised to see her there.

Iris looked around and she realized it was not only the two of them, but also almost all the warriors from the Howling Wolf pack were there.

What was going on here?

Once Iris was taking a step inside the main hall, the guards stepped back and walked out of the room, leaving her standing there awkwardly.

"I am the one, who has summoned her," Alan declared, grinning from ear to ear. "The luna of the pack should witness this as well, right?"
